Chapter 2 Preparing for Installation

Site-Planning Checklist

1 - IEEE class 3 device

17.3

W

 

 

 

total output power

284

W

 

 

 

Total heat dissipated by system = (284/.75) * 3.415 = 1293 BTUs/hr

Note Although a class 3 device needs 15.4 W to power up, 17.3 W need to be generated from the backplane in order to have 15.4 W at the switch port. 17.3 W comes from the WS-X4248-RJ45V DC-DC converter’s efficiency (89%).

Site-Planning Checklist

Table 2-2lists the site-planning activities that you should complete before you install a Catalyst 4500 series switch. Completing each activity helps to ensure a successful switch installation.
